Heat treatment effects on the microstructure and properties of Cu–Cr–Zr alloy used for the ITER blanket components
Cu–Cr–Zr bronze is used as a heat sink for enhanced heat flux first wall components and structural material for blanket module connectors of ITER. The solution annealing at 980 °C for 0.5 h, water quench and ageing at 475 °C for 3 h is specified as a reference heat treatment for ITER. The proper hea...
